Scientists are on the trail of a mysterious five-particle structure that could challenge one of the biggest theories in physics: string theory. This rare particle—never seen before and predicted not ...

Physicists are a step closer to using quantum computers for simulations that are beyond the ability of any ordinary computers ...

String theory began over 50 years ago as a way to understand the strong nuclear force. Since then, it’s grown to become a theory of everything, capable of explaining the nature of every particle ...

String theory has long been presented as physicists' best candidate for describing the fundamental nature of the Universe.

In physics, there are two great pillars of thought that don't quite fit together. The Standard Model of particle physics describes all known ...

String theory might be the theory of everything ... Future particle physics experiments, gravitational wave observatories, or cosmological measurements may offer definitive tests of string theory.

"The string theorists were still looking at 10 dimensions and for a while it wasn't clear whether we were on the same page." M Theory Black holes 'leak' a form of thermal radiation that is known ...

String theory is an attempt to unite the two pillars of 20th century physics — quantum mechanics and Albert Einstein's theory of relativity — with an overarching ... Particle physics: ...

String theory, conceptualized more ... The bootstrap has previously allowed physicists to understand why general relativity and various particle theories—like the interactions of gluons inside ...

Physicists can calculate the final results of particle collisions that form or break strings using classical computers, but cannot fully simulate what happens in between.

Two-dimensional quantum platforms have simulated a process in particle physics called string breaking that generates matter–antimatter pairs.

Quantum Computers Simulate Particle 'String Breaking' in a Physics Breakthrough Physicists are a step closer to using quantum computers for simulations that are beyond the ability of any ordinary ...
